Constellation France has its origins in the Val-de-Meuse site, starting from the acquisition of Frigologix

Frigologix Val-de-Meuse was opened in 1998 following the decision by Frigo, a Dutch cold storage and logistics provider, to enter the French market. Frigo was founded in 1973 in Nieuw-Vennep, the Netherlands, by the Van Elderen family. The family had a strong entrepreneurial background in the food industry, having been involved in the export of beef from Ireland. In the initial years of its operation, the Val-de-Meuse site was dedicated to the storage of frozen potato products; the site now stores a diverse range of products.

Following the acquisition of Frigologix by Constellation in 2021, the facility now provides a strong foothold in the French market for the group. There have been several investments in the site since the acquisition, including improvements to the refrigeration plant which have reduced the energy consumption of the site by 40%.

Constellation has a strong pipeline of investment plans in France in the near future, which will enable the continued rapid growth of the business to meet our customers’ ambitions.
